- This book is the principal output of a six-year research project. Amongst its critical insights is an argument for a specific protection regime to world cultural heritage sites, which was so far lacking despite the fact that such sites are increasingly targeted within situations of armed conflict. The book provides accessible and succinct guidelines to a usually complex web of international conventions. Using different contexts, namely, the conflicts in Syria, Libya and Mali (among others) as case studies, the book offers timely insight into the phenomenon of cultural heritage destruction.
